I have a very old piece of advice regarding dog yarn. MY great aunt Ellen born in 1898 said her grandparents from far northern Sweden used dog yarn all the time. The short of the story is don't use it for socks.

A Navajo friend of mine does something called threading goose and ostrich feathers; where he strips the feathers from the core shaft and then spins the 'feather' threads to either a cotton core or a thin wool core. He usually does a minimum of two passes through the spinner to get a stable yarn.

Very well explained, we have 200 hairy sled dogs here so plenty of raw material. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge.

I made a bracelet from my dog’s winter coat once, it made him so happy to smell it on me. Wish we’d done something bigger with all that fur

Nice! In Russia it's very popular! Dog's yarn have good curative effect !

I have 2 afghan hounds, so I have lots of yarns after seeing it🤩👍🏻

I wanted this done a few years ago and my kiddos thought that was so gross. I think this is a fab. idea! Hope the homestead search is going along well for you!

Tip only use brushed hair do not use cut hair as it won’t work well

I laughed at the title but it is brilliant I have a short haired dog but was wondering about cat yarn too .. I want to get a rabbit to do this very helpful thank you

LOL why did I get a high end perfume ad when I clicked on this? Funny. Great video. 😁

I always wondered whether I could shear our Old English Sheepdogs and make a sweater. Now I know.

[Ocyla]

That makes so much more sense than what I've seen. I had someone spin my dogs yarn a while back but with all the time on our hands these days I wouldn't mind trying to spin.

[danlabowskie]

I never even thought of making yarn from my pup's fur. Wish I had.

My german shepherds make so much hair, I could put Hanes out of business.

[CindyLooWhovian]

Oh I damn near squealed because that's the mix my dog is and how I'm getting the fibers.

I've found 2 people who will send me samoyed and great Pyrenees as long as I pay shipping. Cant wait to get my hands on it

[gooutsideeveryday]

Let's get this viral, this is so neat and quirky lmao

Your eyes are just mesmerizing, like seriously just beautiful.

oh wow...wait until I show my husband this...it has been very cold here(finally warming up a bit ) and for a few days we were battling minus 40 degrees...totally sucked ...and so of course our dogs are in more often than they would normally be and I have a golden retriever with really long hair...which we've been battling because she is shedding ferociously...the battle with dog hair has been driving us bonkers..it is everywhere!

I would have loved to have seen your hand more at the beginning. Great vid.
